SEVENTY YEARS AGO
Has anyone got a map of the Mannin Moar and Mannin Beg circuit which used the Prom, Bray Hill, Glencrutchery Road, Onchan and the Drop down past Summerhill Glen...It is Seventy years ago that this race circuit was used...for cars....In the month of May which must have been just before the TT.

However a number of famous TT riders participated, Wal Handley, Freddie Dixon and Charlie Dobson were three of them !

Has anybody got any info please..I have a book by Barre Lyndon who tells the story well, with pictures but I need to see a map.

I believe York Road was also used...

Thank you....I am going to video the circuit for my files..
